That's just the sort of thing my OH does, he never reads the newspaper on the day it arrives, says he has things to do, so we have about a weeks worth scattered around and he picks them up at random and reads bits out. Can be most annoying at times as I usually read the paper the same day, and then get the repeats. It's as bad as watching TV

PS. my birthday isn't until January, I envy people with summer birthdays, you can have such good "do's" BBQ, picnics etc. I think I'll be like the Queen and have an official birthday in June.
